Benefits of technology

The present invention addresses problems and disadvantages in existing technology. It can improve performance and reliability, and reduce costs and downtime. The invention can also be customized to meet different needs. Overall, the invention has technical effects that enhance user experience and efficiency.

Problems solved by technology

Most seismic array systems in use today utilize copper cable that is extremely heavy, has limited capability and is typically deployed by coils manually.
However, use of copper results in a much more heavy weight and more expensive manual deployment.
